Barney moved close (6)

I believe the answer is:

nearby

'close' is the definition.
(similar in meaning)

'barney moved' is the wordplay.
'moved' indicates an anagram.
'barney' anagrammed gives 'NEARBY'.

(Other definitions for nearby that I've seen before include "In the vicinity" , "Around the corner" , "[OPPOSITE OF] miles away" , "Local" , "somewhere close" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
